Sonorapool 5 Posted October 13, 2021 Share Posted October 13, 2021 First congrats on the new owners.. While I share a level of angst with allowing the Saudi's own a team in Premier League I have come to realize most of that is wrapped up in my concern of being booted out of the top 4. Therefore, I have to check my motives before placing my ire unto a fanbase or football club. I am also careful to condemn regimes because in the end I will condemn my own. My country (USA) has made war into a sport and has participated in the murder of innocents since our inception. Even with that knowledge I still love my country and believe I am blessed to have been born here. Individuals can still love something and not fully support all the actions of the owners or leaders. The clutching of pearls that is occurring has made me realize how much subjectivity enters into psyche of man. While bashing Newcastle for selling to the Saudi's the person who is bashing is likely using petrol or an iphone that was produced by the Saudi's or by forced labor. Most people are only moral up to the point of their comfort is assured and not tested. Anyway... Glad you have come out the other-side with new ownership. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I appreciate the thought and introspection that went into this post. We're all struggling with it too honestly, but have broadly come to the same conclusion.

ohhh_yeah 3053 Posted October 14, 2021 Share Posted October 14, 2021 Newcastle may be desperate for glory, but so are others AMID all the hullabaloo about Newcastle United’s takeover by the Saudi Arabian sovereign wealth fund, there was an underlying feeling the club’s fans were entitled to celebrate the transaction because they had waited so long for success. It is true that Newcastle have gone 52 years without any form of silverware, but they are not alone in being an underachieving club. Certainly, nobody should be using the phrase, “they deserve this because they want it so much”, a throwaway rolled-out by TV “talent” shows full of weeping wannabes and hyberbole. For example, in the current Premier League, there are four clubs (Brentford, Brighton, Crystal Palace and Watford) who have never won a single major trophy. Burnley have waited the longest, 61 years since they won the league title. Then there’s West Ham and Wolverhampton Wanderers, who have gone 41 without a trophy on their boardroom table. In Germany, exactly half of the 18-team Bundesliga have never won a trophy, while poor old Hertha Berlin have gone 90 years without a sniff of silverware. It was 1931 when they were last champions of Germany. Among the owners of barren trophy cabinets are RB Leipzig, who despite being in contention for honours, have yet to break their duck. Only four clubs from Italy’s Serie A have never won a cup, but there’s a lot who have been waiting for what must seem like an eternity. Udinese (91 years), Genoa (84), Venezia (80) and Atalanta (58) are all among the most patient of clubs. Nine clubs from La Liga are potless, while Athletic Bilbao have waited the longest among the past winners, some 37 years. Interestingly, seven teams have lifted trophies in the past three seasons from Spain, highlighting their strength in European competition. France, despite the dominance of Paris Saint-Germain, has only five Ligue 1 teams who have never won a bean. Eleven clubs have won something since 2001. Of those that can look back on past glory, Reims have been waiting longest – 30 years.
